How the ERTH Architecture (ElectroBun + Robyn + Turso + HTMX) breaks the obesity of modern desktop app development.
If you’ve tried to build a cross-platform desktop application recently, you’ve likely faced the classic developer’s dilemma:
Electron makes developer velocity fast, but at the cost of dragging a bloated Chromium kernel and Node.js runtime into every build. A simple "Hello World" easily eats up 200MB+ of disk space and hundreds of megabytes of RAM.
Tauri solves the footprint issue by using OS-native WebViews and Rust, but forces you onto Rust’s steep learning curve, sacrificing the agility of rapid prototyping.
